Become a Partner

🤝 A straightforward way to reach genuine visitors

For over 10 years, Lake District Accommodation has helped people looking to stay in the Lakes connect with independent accommodation providers through a large, active Facebook community.

This website has been created to build on that success — making it easier for visitors to discover places to stay, and for accommodation providers to be visible when people are actively planning a trip.

Becoming a Partner gives your business a clear, visible presence alongside this existing demand, without exclusivity, long contracts, or complex systems.

You stay in full control of how and where guests book — whether that’s direct, via a managing agent, or through your usual booking platform.

💼 What you’ll get as an LDA Partner

✅ Partner posting access — Share availability and relevant updates in the Lake District Accommodation Facebook group without posts being held for admin approval.
🔍 Increased visibility — Appear in the Lake District Accommodation directory, used by visitors actively researching places to stay across the Lake District and wider Cumbria.
📊 Simple performance insights (coming soon) — Access basic insights to help you understand how your posts and listing are performing.
🤝 Ongoing support — Support from people who know the Lake District audience and have been running the community for years.
🚀 Future Partner features — Automatic access to new tools and features as they’re introduced, with no additional setup required.

📈 Why now?

Lake District Accommodation currently connects over 50,000 members, and in the last 12 months the group reached nearly 4 million different people on Facebook.

In the final quarter of 2025 alone, content from the group reached over 1 million unique users — and the audience continues to grow.

Every week, visitors ask for recommendations, share plans, and look for places to stay across the Lake District and wider Cumbria.

As the website develops alongside the Facebook group, Partners benefit from being visible at the point when people are actively deciding where to book.

The LDA Partner scheme is now live.
Promotional posts for accommodation in the Lake District Accommodation Facebook group are now limited to approved LDA Partners, alongside posts from visitors asking for recommendations or sharing genuine experiences.
This gives LDA Partners far greater visibility in the group, rather than competing reactively in busy comment threads.

💡 A note on value

Lake District Accommodation is designed to help visitors discover places they might not otherwise have found, and to give accommodation providers another clear route into that decision-making process.

In practical terms, one additional direct booking of just a few nights can often generate more than the cost of a full year’s Partner subscription.

There are no guarantees — but for many providers, the risk is low and the potential return is easy to justify.

💷 Simple, fair pricing for all accommodation types

Partner pricing is based on the size and type of accommodation you provide, so smaller independent providers aren’t paying the same as larger operators.

Below you’ll see the standard rates (shown struck through), followed by the Early Bird prices available for a limited time.

• individual cottages or a small group of holiday lets
• small campsites or glamping / pod sites with up to 5 serviced units

Medium Accommodation Providers

(Larger B&Bs and guesthouses with 6–10 rooms; businesses managing 6–10 self-contained units or serviced pitches)

Not an accommodation provider?

Most of our LDA Partners are places to stay – B&Bs, cottages, lodges and glamping sites.
But we are also looking to work with other local businesses that support visitors and hosts across the Lakes – cafés, pubs, attractions, outdoor activity providers, cleaners, trades, marketing services and more.
